Has anyone on here fabbed up their own intercooler kit? I found a Garrett IC assembly from 034 that is $500 and has the same dimensions as the core Apikol uses (except it's 3" thick, not 3.5"). I'm thinking I can get all the piping I need and have someone weld it for me, and it will be a lot cheaper than the Apikol kit. If anyone has done this, can you give me an idea of what bends I would need? It seems like the piping for the Apikol kit is fairly minimal. I would love to just buy the kit, but $1350 is pretty insane IMO.<ul><li><a href="http://www.034motorsport.com/product_info.php?products_id=595">Garrett IC</a></li></ul>

Essentially the fmic replaces the x-over pipe, michelin man hose and stock intercooler.
